1. Health, Wellness, Reinvention – many of us are working to redefine what it means

to age – what do you think it means to age fabulously? (expanding outside of

comedienne, you’re teaching/hosting workshops, being featured in beauty
commercials/ad…share, share share…)

2. What attitudes or stereotypes about aging do you most despise pertaining to the

entertainment industry? Which ones do you defy?

3. Have you ever been told “you’re too old for that? If so- what was the “that” and

what was your response/reaction?

4. You’ve been able to reinvent yourself as a “creative entrepreneur” as a coach and
author…tell us more about how you’ve found and embraced your personal

power? (share highlights/pearls of wisdom from book…)

5. Who is Kim’s best friend? What do you all talk about?

6. Your close circle of friends and family have been a staple in your life. Can you

speak to how sisters and sisterhood has played a part in your life, whether it be in

your family, friends or your career?

7. Who are your greatest influences and role models growing up and what is your 12

vision for your life?

8. What would you wish for all of us – in life, in love, in empowerment?
